Verdict
Dan Skelton won this last year and COBRA DE MAI can follow suit. He starts chasing on the same mark as when second over hurdles at Ludlow last month and should do better over the larger obstacles. Tiger Trek was placed over fences in Ireland for former connections and was second at Worcester last July on his first run over the larger obstacles for Richard Newland. He should go well if fully wound-up while Mango Cap is starting to slip down the weights. Sarpech and See The World are also worth a market check.
